50NL suitable spot for set-mining?

You have position, and by 3 betting you take control of the pot. You have a chance to take the pot away from TT-QQ if an ace or king hit and you c-bet. If you just call and the flop comes Q-8-5, what do you do with his c-bet? Do you automatically fold? Do you float it?

...and when he calls you down with JJ you can write in chat box:
"how could you call that bet with only JJ?!? Donk!!!"

[mce86]

Ah,but when he calls with JJ, and the fop comes K-x-x, we win!

Thanks to everyone for the feedback - especially the following:

call if less than 5% of effective stacks, fold if over 10%, and make a judgement call between 5% and 10%)

that's a very good rule to determine to call or not. But isn't call justified when effective stack is only 8 times bigger cause you flop set in 13% of the time? [maybe my knowing of odds is oldschool or wrong, though, hah].

Sure, in that case we are left with no buffer to further reraises.

This would only be true if we stack him every time we hit our set, which is nowhere close to true.

I used to use the "I'll stack them if I hit" line but am getting more realistic in estimating implied odds. I like the 5/10 shortcut.

call that for set mining all day.
